Philosophy - Hot Salt Body Scrub in Gingerbread Man and Senorita Margarita

I've blogged about products that keep my face soft and smooth, lotions that make my body smooth, I loooove being smooth. I refuse to have any part of my body ever be rough, chapped, chaffed, dry, or any other icky antonym for silky smooth. It's all fine and dandy to put lotions and oils on your body to smooth out your skin, but nothing buffs out and polishes skin like a great exfoliating scrub. I love my scrubs. I use my St. Ives Apricot Scrub on my face religiously and love the feeling I get after a good scrubbin'. But you can't stop at just exfoliating your face. You have to exfoliate your whole body. That's where Philosophy's Hot Salt Body Scrubs come into effect. I recently received samples from my favorite store in the world :) of 2 scrubs in particular that I'm giddy goo goo ga ga about. The first one is called Gingerbread Man. It smells divine and warm and delicious. It's a rich brown color and looks like brown sugar. The next one is called Senorita Margarita. This, no lie, smells just like a delicious ice-cold margarita, but in a great and amazing way. It's addicting. Nice and limey. The smell alone is worth trying this scent. These body scrubs slightly heat up as you rub the product in, which feels sooo good. They are thick scrubs, a bit rough, which I like. I don't like an oily scrub with a lot of slip. I want to really get in there. The directions suggest scrubbing on dry skin and then washing the scrub off afterwards. I'd like to call myself a G, so I bravely dry scrub while standing in the shower, then turn the shower on to rinse off. I find that this is the best method because you have traction when you're scrubbing and it doesn't glide too easily. When you rinse this off, your whole body will honestly, no fingers crossed, feel like a baby's butt. Seriously. It is insane. If you've never tried a high quality body scrub, try this and you will never go back to life without it. Trust me.
